A2Z Events by Personify vs. Tripleseat and Gather

Well suited for sessions and events information with the exception of large white space areas when viewed. Depending on how your organization is set up the only "less appropriate" area for us would be the actual accounting side, but that is because our accounting department prefers to maintain invoices, etc out of their own system. However, the invoices provided by A2Z does aid them when the are reconciling to their own system

It is not great for adding images to promote events as the images have to be of a certain size and this size is often difficult to manage. The program also doesn't differentiate very clearly between past and upcoming events so when you search it is difficult to decipher which events were from years ago and which are recent/upcoming.

• Very easy for the exhibitors and the attendees to navigate the floor.
• It looks very crisp and is easy to print.
• The online exhibitor search field is awesome - so easy for our attendees to map out who they want to visit.
• The support team is very responsive and the training opportunities are flexible.

Incentivized

• Calendar organisation
• Automatic uploads
• Detailed information

• Coming from software where I had a huge amount of access to the "backend", it would be nice to be able to manipulate areas of the Exhibit Floorplan a little easier with regard to items like tables, chairs, stages, etc. Maybe add some icons that could be pasted into the floorplan for faster success?
• The agenda within A2Z does not give you the ability to host on your own conference site.
• The agenda view is sometimes perceived as being too long, there's a lot of extra "white space".

Incentivized

• Slow uploading
• Image uploading issues
• Hard to edit events enmasse

A2Z is so much better than ExpoCad. It is easy for the exhibit sales team to use and it is easy for the attendees and vendors to use. Pulling the program book is a cinch now. I don't understand how people still use ExpoCad?!

• Positive - it provides one place from which primary players in the conference could pull information. A2Z maintains consistency and lowers the discrepancy issue when everyone tries to keep their own little database.
• Positive - Time Saver.
• No negative that I can recall.

Incentivized

• ROI is hard to decipher as the financial aspect of the program is often difficult to use
